ASUS P8H61-MX H61 Micro ATX Motherboard

The ASUS P8H61-MX is a Micro ATX motherboard built on the Intel H61 chipset for LGA 1155 processors. It accepts up to 16GB of DDR3 memory and targets budget builds or replacement upgrades for older platforms. The board ships with a chassis I/O back panel and one SATA cable.

DDR3 memory limited to 16GB maximum capacity

The board supports DDR3 modules up to a total of 16GB across its slots. This ceiling restricts multitasking headroom and rules out modern memory standards. Any build needing more capacity or faster memory types must choose a different platform.

LGA 1155 socket defines processor compatibility

Only CPUs designed for the LGA 1155 socket will fit this motherboard. The socket choice locks the system to the generation of processors that match this physical interface. Verify your exact CPU model before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 16GB version or is there a larger capacity option?

The board tops out at 16GB of DDR3, so that is the only capacity ceiling to consider.

What does the 16GB DDR3 limit mean once the board is installed in a system?

You can populate the memory slots up to 16GB total; the chipset will not address more than that.

Which storage interface does the board use and what speed does it cap at in practice?

It provides SATA ports for drives; the H61 chipset runs those ports at SATA 3Gb/s speeds.
